kpasswd

It appears that the --enable-kpasswd option is gone from openldap 2.1.23
I recall some discussion about the {kerberos} option in the user password, but
I thought that the concensus was that people were using this didn't want it to
be discontinued.
I guess I was wrong and the decision was made to remove it. It didn't seem to
warrant a line in the release notes.
Is that gone for good? Is it a mistake in the release?
What should people do for id/password authentication from now on?
